Ok, look. I make a ton of tix/robux making clothes like shoes, pants, jerseys, etc. But when I realized people are literally stealing my shoes and earning nearly or more sales than me, I got really angry.
We need to do something to copiers!
Here are a few resolutions that I think could work:
>Completely remove the template on the website! >>This is the major reason clothes are copied. Whether the people are copying the image itself and resizing onto a template or going to this stupid new website (ht tp://a sset-ma rkotaris.rhclo ud.co m/) and getting the exact size image, it is still copying.
>Let the creators of the original clothing get a chance to report the clothing for other reasons than the content (inappropriateness, etc.) >>We should be able to click report and have another option, report for copying. There would be two boxes. The first one would ask you to give the link of the original content. The second box would ask for a description of the copying (like took the pants, but not the shoes. Took the backpack, but not the shirt).
*TL;DR:* >Let us punish copiers or let us remove the ways of the copiers. It makes some creators want to stop making things, and also makes us really mad.

If they took the backpack and not the shirt, you need to get over it. It's the shirt you should be concerned about, not the backpack. |

@iron
Just for example. I don't make backpacks in specific. I just now realized it probably didn't support what I was saying well, lmao |

| If they're somehow making more money off of your clothes than you are, you should think about how you're going about selling them. :/ |

Here's an example. They changed the sock, that is it. It is literally copy and pasted.

Kind of stupid, eh? |

However, some players might like his design better than yours. In fact, I support you a bit less now.
I don't mean to sound like a jerk, but if two clothing companies sell the same pants with different designs, the store that has the design people like more will get more sales.
He did change the pants, and that may be pushing his sales up. |

I don't think a ban is needed.
Killing ROBLOXians isn't the way to go here.
Maybe delete the item of offense and then suspension. Maybe compensation as well or I don't know.
Half-support. |

"I don't think a ban is needed"
harsh punishment is the only way they're gonna learn to make their own stuff and not copy |

| That is why the Price floor has a purpose of preventing copiers. |

He may have copied, but he changed it.
She never explicitly said "PEOPLE ARE COPYING, KILL THEIR FAMILIES." She gets mad when people make more money than she does.
If that happens, you have to think about being a more aggressive marketer. The economy is a no-man's land, and if a brick wall appears you have to find a way around it. |

The shoes are the exact same. The shorts are a little different.

@Rey
The Price Floor wants to help good creators. It also influences copiers with the high prices. If the people who would originally buy this stuff don't want to anymore, they will just use that website and copy it, then sell it for themselves or keep it on their own.
My MAJOR problem with copiers is them copying it and selling it. I am still not ok with copiers taking it and not selling it, but selling it is a serious issue.
I like the Price Floor, however. It's the only reason I am, uh, semi-rich? Don't know how you would define what I am. |

There is no resolution. What are they gonna do, get a team of moderators to painstakingly check if clothing assets look like another one?
The only thing you can do now is try and market it better than they market it. |

| If they can moderate shirts and pants in less than 1 hour sometimes, then they can do this. |

Support, half, because how would the mods know? People could lie, just to get them banned.

Nobody should be allowed to copyright the shirts I sell.

| Plot twist: If you would sell your stuff for the minimum, he couldn't offer a better deal than you and people would probably buy yours |

| 5-20 tix over the minimum isn't enough for someone to copy it. |
